UPPSC Prelims (GS 2) Mock Test - 9 (CSAT) - Question 6
There are two pipes A and B, each can fill the tank in 20 hours. Both pipes are opened together and due to leakage it was found that that take 2 hours more to fill the tank. If the tank is full then in what time leakage will empty the tank.
Detailed Solution for UPPSC Prelims (GS 2) Mock Test - 9 (CSAT) - Question 6

Given

Tank filled in 20 hours

The tank was filled in 2 hours more due to leakage.

Calculation

A = 20 hours

B = 20 hours

Let total work = LCM(20,20) = 20 units

Efficiency of A = 20/20 = 1 unit 

Efficiency of B = 20/20 = 1 unit

So, if A + B work together without leakage then time taken to fill the tank = 20/(1+1) = 10 hours

and

When A + B work together with leakage then the time taken to fill the tank = 10 + 2 = 12 hours

So,

(A + B + leakage)'s efficiency = 20/12 = 5/3 units

So,

Efficiency of leakage = 5/3 - 2 = -1/3 units

So,

Time taken by leakage to empty the tank = 20/(1/3) = 60 hours

∴ Tank will empty in 60 hours.
